You are dropping names like people know or care who he is.
He sounds like a real gem though...maybe we should just start punching people in the face while they are down and stomp on them also?
Why he thinks a body is softer than pavement is beyond me, they are normally attached to bikes with sharp protrusions sticking out of them, bikes and people are no more fun to fall on than the road.
